Pylewell Park | Wedition Venue Spotlight

by Liz Gatherer

Pylewell Park, located in the New Forest, surrounded by 27 acres of traditionally laid out parkland and a 15 acre lake, with the sea as a stunning backdrop, is a privately owned country and sporting estate, and is a newly launched weddings and events venue. With a brand new Pavilion built next the house with space for 200 sit down guests, a floor to ceiling glass front to showcase the view out to the Solent, a bar, kitchen, terrace with festoon lighting and rattan furniture it's a utterly unique venue to the New Forest. The main house has 3 beautiful bedrooms available for use for your wedding night.

What's your favourite fun fact that you love to share with Pylewell Park couples?

One of my favourite fun facts about Pylewell Park is that the grounds contain lots of Asian and Australasian plants, bought back from William Ingham Whitaker's world travels, one of the previous owners, in the 19th Century. It's the finer details and special touches of the venue and wedding couple that I love to include within Wedition. What's you favourite fun fact that you love to share with wedding couples?

During the war the house and grounds were occupied by US military who flew Thunderball planes and formed the spear for the Normandy landings on D-Day.

We offer a very flexible service with no packages or must do rules, whether you want informal dining, a picnic, hog roast, BBQ, add some dodgems or a carousel, it's your space and your day. Couples love having that flexibility and also access the day before a wedding to set up which a lot of other venues do not offer.
